Campus Policy: Illegal Distribution of Copyrighted Materials De Anza College students are prohibited from using the Foothill-De Anza (FHDA) Community College District information network to illegally download or share music, video and all other copyrighted intellectual property. Read the full policy.

Protect Your Identity To help prevent identity theft and to comply with government legislation, De Anza provides students with an assigned Student Identification Number (SID), also known as Campuswide ID. This SID/CWID is an 8-digit, system-generated number that is used instead of your Social Security Number. With the MyPortal system introduced Summer 2010, you can no longer use a Social Security number as your student ID. Students are required to use this number to log in to the registration system. Memorize it. It will be used with your new MyPortal password that you will create the first time you log in to MyPortal.
